Please confirm that you are precisely following the official brew instructions for STAR on Mac: https://github.com/alexdobin/STAR#compile-under-mac-os-x which does not instruct to install what you try to do. You have a conda environment activated, I anyway would recommend to conda deactivate that before doing brew, things could be conflicting. Best to keep package managers strictly separated.

Thanks a lot for your respond. I did't what you said, unfortunately, it's still given error.
